- Revision History:
-
- 2.8 08/06/88 General Release - all known bugs fixed.
-
- 2.9 08/19/88 Changed default save file from TEMP in the current
- directory to MESSAGE.SAV in the main 'BBS' directory.
- Added the MESSAGE.LOG feature to allow "screening" of
- message areas when using the two-letter "A?" commands.
-
- 3.0 08/20/88 Added the L)ength and W)idth commands to the X)change
- menu. The length command was there before, but now you
- have to specify "L" before giving a number. If you set
- your screen width too small or too large, you'll get
- some funny results.
-
- 3.1 09/03/88 Added the P)urge command to the X)change menu to change
- the default KILL/SENT setting on newly created Matrix
- messages. Added logic to set the REC'D flag on messages
- addressed to the sysop. Fixed the "Forwarded by..."
- line created by the M)ove command. It will now display
- the actual address, including zone and point numbers.
-
- 3.2 09/08/88 Fixed a little problem in the color display of the A)rea
- change list that nobody seemed to notice or decided not
- to report. Me and my mono monitor can't test these
- things folks, so help me out.
-
- 3.3 01/29/89 Cleaned up a lot of the source code. Changed the "!"
- command (toggle Receipt) in the C)hange menu to "*" (the
- exclaimation point can not be used because the command
- terminator is also "!"). Modified code so the LASTREAD
- pointer could be stored as 0 in non-echomail areas.
- Added maintenance of the MESSAGE.LOG file if it exists
- when MSG starts. Added the Z)ap options menu to allow
- you to change the ORIGIN, DIR.BBS, and HANCOCK.JON files
- in a specific message area. Added the "RP", "RN", "RC",
- and "RH" commands to set attributes on reply messages.
-
- 4.0 10/03/89 Changed from the tiny to the small memory model. The
- program is now MSG.EXE, not MSG.COM. If you're
- upgrading from version 3.3 or earlier, you should
- delete your old MSG.COM before attempting to use the
- new MSG.EXE. Changed the exclamation point terminator
- to the carat for compatibility with CED, and to allow
- exclamation points to be part of a message's subject.
- Added the P)rivate, PassT)hru, and U)ser options in the
- Z)ap menu. Allowed the Origin line to be up to 79
- characters long. Added the "!" and "@" marker
- commands. Added the D)ecorate option to the X)change
- menu to allow colors to be configured. Rearranged the
- X)change menu - removed the C)olor option and renamed
- the B)lank Screen to C)lear Screen. Added the mailing
- list feature for E)ntering messages. Put a little more
- punch in the M)ove command. Changed the K)ill command
- to prompt for a message number. Changed the W)rite
- command so it will remember the last filename you
- specified. Added Hotkey functionality with the H)otkey
- command in the X)change menu.
-
- 4.1 10/23/99 Added macro capability using the MSG.MAC file. Added
- the "*" command to go to the last message, and the "$"
- command to go to the first message.
